Alexis G. Zall: Jackie Geary

Quotes 

• Adam Goldberg : Okay, so, I narrowed it down to these 29 horror movies.

  Jackie Geary : I think all we need is one. "Nightmare on Elm Street."

  Adam Goldberg : Yeah, I'm not so sure. Something about Freddy Krueger creeps me out. It could be the face or the claws or the whole fall-asleep-and-you-die concept.

  Jackie Geary : Oh, don't worry. I'll protect you.

  Beverly Goldberg : No. That's my job! And you know my number one rule: No scary movies.

  Adam Goldberg : That's the thing, it's *not* scary. "Elm Street" is a very charming rom-com.

  Beverly Goldberg : "High school friends slaughtered in their sleep by the predatory monster of their shared nightmares"?

  Adam Goldberg : Gah! What's the worst that can happen?

  Beverly Goldberg : I don't know. Why don't you ask Joyce Dimarco's son Anthony. He didn't sleep for three years after watching "The Exorcist", so his body never grew. Well, now he's a 4'7" adult man who needs a special stool to use a sink!
